Riyadh—Amlak
During the current academic year, 1434/1435 AH, the Saudi Authority for Industrial Cities and Technology Zones (MODON) completed its preparations to launch a national campaign titled “Get to Know Your Country’s Industry,” which aims to familiarize male and female students at various levels of general and higher education with the development, excellence, and diversity of Saudi industry through scheduled and regular visits to all factories and companies located within the industrial cities.
The “Get to Know Your Country’s Industry” campaign stems from MADIN’s belief in the significant status and importance that today’s students hold for the nation’s future as the hope of tomorrow, The project aims to reinforce the concept of social participation to foster a greater sense of belonging and loyalty to the homeland among students by giving them firsthand exposure to the massive industrial projects underway in various industrial cities across the Kingdom’s regions and cities, as well as connecting them with national products and their specifications and standards, which rival those of imported goods; encouraging their interest in participating in the industrial sector; and linking academic knowledge with practical experience.
It is worth noting that the annual visit program will be followed by an exhibition of domestic products from the various companies and factories participating in the campaign.
